Bio:  
I have been teaching public speaking for over 10 years at various colleges in the Midwest and as a corporate communication trainer all over the country. I have an MA in Communication and Performance Studies from Eastern Michigan University. I also direct and perform in stage productions around Chicago. Learning about effective communication skills is one of the most critical undertakings for today's students. It is an opportunity to find your authentic voice (both personal and professional) and to let it speak confidently and clearly.
